WHEAT-The market remains in lifeless
condition. The snow and rain of the past few
days have not materially changed matters Buy
ers, it is true, have moderated their views of val
ues, but sellers are not OF the opinion that the
rain has been either heavy or general enough to
justify the lowering of asking figures As a CON
sequence, trade is wholly at & standstill. The
highest figures that exporters will pay for No.
grade is 81 50 q ctl, and this can be considered
the nominal market quotation Holders are not
prepared to part with stock at the rate offered,
and if fair weather and sunshine prevail for
day or two, the reluctancy to sell would be
greater and more positive. Light purchases are
reported on milling account at 81 5712G1 60 q

BARLEY-The snow-5orm caused a tumble in
prices of Zoe z ell in period of fortyeight
hours, from Saturday TO Monday and the eessa-
ton of subsequent rain alone checked any flu
ture decline. This morning there was a stead
Ter feeling with prospect of revival in trade.
For the better qualities of Feed IL OH z ctl was
the general asking rate, and few transactions
only were recorded ut this figure, as buyers
were not inclined TO pay over 81 %. Had hold
ers showed any desire to shade the volume of
business would likely have been more extern
SiVe. Brewing is also recovering from the de-
preston consequent upon the elements, and
nothing at all attractive can be bought under
81 III \ ctl. An offer of 81 10 for round lot at
San Jose is understood to have been refused.

have invited considerable trade from adjacent
States and Territories. This circumstance, to-
getheT with q shipment OF couple OF cars to
New York, has largely relieved the market of
surplus and stocks are fairly well cleaned up.

much steadier tone. We quote prices as fol-
